Fine-tune intensity to get the exact mood you want. ◆ DEVICE FRAME MOCKUPS Showcase your screenshots inside realistic iPhone, iPad, MacBook, Surface, and Studio Display frames. Pick from beautiful gradient backgrounds or solid colors to complete the look. ◆ PRECISION ADJUSTMENTS Exposure, contrast, saturation, highlights, shadows, and full HSL control. Every slider is non-destructive — experiment freely. ◆ TEXT, STICKERS & WATERMARKS Add stylish text overlays with 15+ fonts, emoji stickers, location stamps, and repeating watermark patterns. Position, scale, and rotate with precision. ◆ CROP & TRANSFORM Free-form or locked-ratio cropping, rotation, and flip. Crop once in the editor and carry it through to batch and grid modes seamlessly. ◆ EXPORT IN FULL QUALITY Save to your Photos library in JPEG (with quality slider) or PNG at full resolution. What you see is what you get. ◆ ONE-TIME PURCHASE No subscription. Pay once, unlock Pro forever — including all LUTs, fonts, device frames, grid layouts, batch export, and custom LUT import.

AnyLUT is a RAW photo editor and 3D LUT workflow for iPhone and iPad. Import camera RAW files, JPEGs, HEIC images, and standard .cube LUTs, then edit in one transparent, controllable, and reversible workflow. It does not repaint your photo. It gives you better control over the photo you already made. 【New in 1.1: Local Masks and On-Device AI Editing】 • Build local adjustments with brushes, erasers, linear or radial gradients, or semantic selections for subjects, people, skies, and more. • Adjust light, colour, detail, and curves independently within each mask. Every change remains editable, comparable, and undoable. • AI Edit (Beta): describe the look you want in natural language, and an on-device model proposes inspectable editing adjustments. It never generates or repaints pixels. • AI Edit requires a compatible Apple Intelligence device, system, and language. Results may vary during beta; every manual tool remains available. 【A transparent editing workflow】 • Import RAW, JPEG, HEIC, and standard 3D .cube LUT files • Preview LUTs on the photo you are editing and control their intensity • Organize LUTs with folders and favourites; apply looks in batches • Fine-tune exposure, highlights, shadows, white balance, HSL, curves, texture, clarity, dehaze, denoise, defringe, crop, and rotation • Compare before and after, keep edits non-destructive, and undo freely • Export JPEG or HEIF in sRGB or Display P3 • Create share-ready before/after posters with photo, camera, and look details 【Local first】 Your photos and LUTs stay on your device. RAW development, previews, editing, AI Edit, and export all happen locally—no account and no original-photo uploads required. Optional anonymous usage and performance analytics can be disabled at any time in Settings.
